Calling You Home
Journey of Reflection: Embracing the Past, Answering the Call
Lyrics
So Your dreams are wearing threadbare
Feeling like your aspirations are becoming worn out or less significant.
And your love is lying low
Your affection is not as prominent or active.
I don't know where the time went
Uncertain about the passage of time.
Now it seems so long ago
Reflecting on a distant past that now feels distant.
To get caught up in the future
Being overly concerned with the future may not be enduring.
Doesn't ever seem to last
Emphasizing that an obsession with the future is fleeting.
And there is no future
Contradicting the idea of a lasting future.
Doesn't ever seem to last
Reiterating the ephemeral nature of the future.
And there is no future for you
Asserting that dwelling in the past won't lead to a positive future.
When you're living in the past
Highlighting the consequences of living in the past.
The swallows in the spring
Using swallows in spring as a metaphor for finding direction.
Find their way eventually
Expressing the idea that everything finds its way eventually.
And so with everything
Applying the principle of things happening as intended.
That's the way it's meant to be
Reaffirming the natural order of events.
And it's calling you home
The central theme of the song, a beckoning to return home.
Calling you home
Repetition emphasizing the call to return home.
Calling you home
Continuing to stress the importance of coming back home.
On the whisper of the wind
Nature holds the secrets of the Earth and the call to return home.
In the laughing running water
Emphasizing the natural elements as carriers of wisdom.
Lie the secrets of the earth
Hinting at the availability of knowledge for everyone.
Free for all her sons & daughters
The call to return home is universal for all individuals.
When you glimpse the distant ship
Seeing a distant opportunity but also potential danger.
And you can hear the sirens singing
Suggesting temptation and allure in the distant opportunity.
You are bound to lose your grip
Warning about losing control when enticed by something enchanting.
As the magic lingers
Describing the lingering impact of magical experiences.
A Voice inside your head
An inner voice signaling that it's time for a change.
Tells you that it's time to go
A song or message urging action, strong and clear.
The song it sings is strong and clear
Confirming the purpose of the song as a guide for change.
Just to let you know
Emphasizing the clarity and directness of the guidance.
It keeps calling you home, calling you home
Repeating the call to return home with emphasis.
Calling you home. Do do do do do
Repetition with a musical element, reinforcing the call to return home.
